Which was when she heard Penelope's voice, causing the Gryffindor to turn around to her housemate. " Psst, Penelope, it's alright not to know everything," she said in a soft voice. Merlin knew that Kurumi knew next to nothing when she first had arrived at Hogwarts. " Maybe...you can help me with mine?" she asked, showing the first year her chart. " See if there is anything I am missing or you think should be added?" Nothing was too small a detail after all, and a fresh set of eyes and brain was always a fantastic way to get a new outlook on a subject. Comparing the p-word to the one that she couldn't remember the name of was going to be an awfully difficult thing to do, and Penelope was tempted to just close the textbook and go back to her blank staring. But then she heard her name spoken by a very familiar voice, and she turned her attention to Kurumi.
It was alright not to know everything? "Is not knowing anything alright too?" Because that was her problem. She didn't want to know EVERYTHING. She'd just like to know SOMETHING, anything that would make her fit in a little better with these other students who always seemed to have an answer.
Kurumi wanted HER to help with her chart? That was awfully generous considering Kurumi probably DID know everything, at least in comparison to Penelope. But really, the first year wasn't a quitter and didn't want to decline Kurumi's help, so she leaned forward a bit to peer at the older girl's chart.
Staring at it at first, Penelope didn't see much she could add. She didn't know any of the stuff that was already on there, so she definitely didn't know of anything else about those two things to add anything. But then...she spotted something. "Well, the Pythagorean thing," she sounded out the p-word carefully, "starts with a 'P' and the Chaldean thing," that one she had to sound out carefully as well, starts with a 'C', so that makes them different." So that went into the separate parts of the circles, yeah?
